Answer:

That is, mechanical waves cannot travel through a vacuum. This feature of mechanical waves is often demonstrated in a Physics class. A ringing bell is placed in a jar and air inside the jar is evacuated. Once air is removed from the jar, the sound of the ringing bell can no longer be heard.

A bicyclist of mass 60kg supplies 340W of power while riding into a 5 m/s head wind. The frontal area of the cyclist and bicycle

NikAS [45]

Answer:

87.1 mph

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass,m=60 kg

Power,P=340 W

Speed,v=5 m/s

Area, $A=0.344 m^2$

Drag coefficient, $C_d=0.88$

Coefficient of rolling resistance, $\mu_r=0.007$

Friction force, $f=\mu_rmg=0.007\times 60\times 9.8=4.1 N$

Where $g=9.8 m/s^2$

Let speed of cyclist=v'

Drag force, $F_d=\frac{1}{2}\rho_{air}AC_dv^2$

Density of air, $\rho_{air}=1.225 kg/m^3$

$F_d=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.225\times 0.344\times 0.88(5)^2=4.635N$

Power,P= $(F_d+f)\times v'$

$340=(4.1+4.635) v'=8.735v'$

$v'=\frac{340}{8.735}=38.9m/s$

$v'=87.1 mph$

1 m=0.00062137 miles

1 hour=3600 s

A small sphere is hung by a string from the ceiling of a van. When the van is stationary, the sphere hangs vertically. However,

Paraphin [41]

Answer: 42.49 $m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to keep in mind the following:

While the sphere hangs it is under the effect of gravity. It is creating a Angle of 90° taking the roof as a reference.

Gravity can be noted as a Acceleration Vector. The magnitud for Earth's Gravity is a constant: 9.81 $m/s^{2}$

The acceleration of the Van will affect the sphere also, but this accelaration will be on the X-axis and perpendicular to the gravity. Because this two vectors are taking action under the sphere they will create a angle. This angle can be measured as a relation of the two magnitudes.

Tangent (∅) = Opossite Side / Adyacent Side

By trigonometry, we know the previous formula. This formula allows us to find the Tangent of a angle as a relation between the two perpendiculars magnitudes. In this case the Opossite Side will be the Gravity Accelaration, while the Adyancent Side is the Van's Acceleration.

(1) Tangent (∅) = Gravity's Acceleration (G) / Van's Acceleration (Va)

Searching for the Va in (1)

Va = G/Tan(∅)

Where ∅ in this case is equal to 13.0°

Va = 9.81 $m/s^{2}$ / Tan(13.0°)

Va = 42.49 $m/s^{2}$

The vans acceleration need to be 42.49 $m/s^{2}$ to create an angle of 13° with the Van's Roof

In certain cases, using both the momentum principle and energy principle to analyze a system is useful, as they each can reveal

kramer

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is the following:

$F_G = G * \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} \\$

Where:

G = Gravitational constant = $6.67408 * 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

m1 & m2 = the mass of two related objects

r = distance between the two related objects

The problem gives you everything you need to plug into the formula, except for the gravitational constant. Let me know if you need further clarification.
